Vietnam Fisheries receives IT boost,
Hanoi and all Vietnam coastal provinces, starting at 04/2000

The monitoring of Vietnam’s vital fish-stocks received a boost today with the signing of two IT contracts between i3 (with previous management board of IndochinaNet) and Fisheries Sector Programme Support, Ministry of Fisheries (MoF) - DANIDA. Valued at almost US$500,000 (VND7.5 billion), the contracts provide for the construction and maintenance of a Wide Area Network (WAN) linking MoF offices in 28 coastal provinces to the Research Institute for Marine Products (RIMP) in Hai Phong.

In addition to the WAN, we supply computer and networking hardware, PC and server software and peripheral devices, together with training packages and ongoing maintenance.

The upgraded infrastructure make high-speed data transfer possible between MoF’s provincial collection stations and the RIMP in Hai Phong, significantly reducing the current time lag between data collection and collation and analysis.
